In Conversation With Kingsol Chabalala MPL - DA Emfuleni North Constituency Head.

The financially strained Emfuleni Local Municipality has spent almost R12 million on four service providers for grave-digging between the 2022 and 2025 financial years, despite having a Parks and Recreation Department resourced with staff capable of performing this function.
